“We live in a world of mystery, wonder, and beauty. But most of us seldom participate in this realworld, being aware rather of a world that is mostly strife, suffering, or meaninglessness. This

situation is basically due to our not realizing and living our full human potential. This potential canbe actualised by the realisation and development of the human essence. The human essence is the

More about the Diamond Approach The Diamond Approach is a path of personal development and maturation.

Enneagram authorities Don Riso and Russ Hudson, Sandra Maitri and author Sherry Ruth Andersen and many otherleaders in the personal development arena globally are themselves students or teachers of the Diamond Approach.

It welcomes eachperson exactly where they are, supporting them to take the natural next step in their unique development.

About Dominic LiberDominic had a 25 year career as an actuary, including as one of the founders ofLeapFrog Investments, a global leader in investing behind positive social impact.Through out that time, he was simultaneously immersed in the practice and studyof spirituality and modern depth psychology, also completing the nine year trainingto be a teacher of the Diamond Approach.

Over the last two years he has moved full time into teaching, speaking and writingin South Africa and the UK. His experience spanning the outer world of businessand the inner world of psychology and spirituality provides powerful and timeousnew possibilities for meeting the challenges that we face individually and as asociety. Dominic’s work is about allowing our intrinsic nature, the truth that we are,to meet and inhabit our daily lives more freely, authentically and effectively.

“Almaas is one of the most significant voices for a new and remarkablyintegrated spiritual vision. His work connects the personal, theuniversal, the psychological, and the spiritual not as pieces puttogether, but as the inseparable mandala of the sacred that we are.” - Jack Kornfield, author of A Path with Heart
